Performance Rights Act - AFL-CIO President Rich Trumka

The AFM and musicFIRST joined labor leaders and members of Congress to outline a new mobilization effort to pass a bill that supports fair pay for musicians--The Performance Rights Act. AFL-CIO President Rich Trumka pledges the support of his organization, emphasizing that "radio stations have used the publicly owned airwaves to make billions of dollars playing music without paying the artists that recorded it one red cent."
